Description This is a cool probelm twenty feet behind the Angry Man Boulder. I did this last summer, and ran into some grainy footholds, no one seemed to have climbed it before, who knows. This is a slightly tall slab with the crux at the end, it is [reminiscent] of the Tooth Boulder slabs down the hill, and is just as good if a little harder. A crashpad is usefull as well as good slab technique. A good problem to do in between tries on Angry Left Man.

| I did this problem yesterday during a day long bouldering session at lumpy. I should have given this three stars, it has cleaned up right now to be a solid delicate tall 5.11 slab, and absolutely beautiful and aesetic problem that few know about. With a couple crash pads it is pretty safe. There is an easier variation to the left. |
